Updates For Our Books

Here at Alicia's Attic we strive to give you the best results possible so that you can finish your quilts with success. We have testers go over the patterns in our books to make sure they are right. Sometimes however, an error is not noticed, so that is what this page is dedicated to updating the instructions in our books. If you find any changes that are not listed please call us toll free at 888-348-6653 or email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
